USER EQUIPMENT STATUS INFORMATION REPORTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18054618 titled 'USER EQUIPMENT STATUS INFORMATION REPORTING

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure relates to wireless communication, where a first user equipment (UE) receives a configuration from a programmable logic controller (PLC) or a network node. The first UE then transmits status information to other UEs, the PLC, or the network node based on the configuration, indicating its ability to perform tasks such as data relaying, reading RF signals from zero power Internet of Things (ZP-IoT) devices, relaying information from the RF signals, or transmitting wireless energy to ZP-IoT devices.

  • First user equipment (UE) receives a configuration from a programmable logic controller (PLC) or a network node.
  • The first UE transmits status information to other UEs, the PLC, or the network node based on the configuration.
  • Status information indicates the first UE's ability to perform tasks such as data relaying, reading RF signals from ZP-IoT devices, relaying information from the RF signals, or transmitting wireless energy to ZP-IoT devices.

Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first user equipment (UE) may receive, from one of a programmable logic controller (PLC) or a network node, a configuration. The first UE may transmit, to one or more of a second UE, the PLC, or the network node, and based at least in part on the configuration, status information associated with the first UE, the status information being associated with an ability of the first UE to perform one or more of: data relaying for other UEs; a reading of radio frequency (RF) signals associated with reading or processing information from one or more zero power internet of things (ZP-IoT) devices and a relaying of information associated with the RF signal; or a transmission of wireless energy to one or more ZP-IoT devices. Numerous other aspects are described.
